“The skills, life experience and wisdom of our older residents are invaluable to younger members of the community and for our future. Thanks to the hard work of those who have gone before us, we continue to see improvements to our quality of life and even greater opportunities ahead.

“We continue to receive great feedback about our annual Grandparents Day and I encourage the community to attend this year’s event at Fairfield City Museum & Gallery, which will have activities and workshops that have been organised for all to enjoy.”

There will be a DJ, multiple Vintage Village tours and a performance by the Older Women’s Network Theatre Group. Children will enjoy a visit from Paw Patrol characters, a magic show and craft activities.
